<p>I saw the owner throwing the ball and when I came back an hour forty-five minutes later, she was still throwing the ball. That’s when I started taking the&nbsp;photos.</p>

Does this look like a worried dog to you? Is this an abandoned dog like: &lt;<a class="reference external" href="https://www.sritch.com/dogs/abandoned-vancouver-bc.html">https://www.sritch.com/dogs/abandoned-vancouver-bc.html</a>&gt;? Both were at the Granville Island Public&nbsp;Market.</p>

<p>Dogs don&#8217;t care about how they look. They care about how they feel and how we feel about&nbsp;them.</p>
<p>This dog, Mick (I think that&#8217;s how it&#8217;s spelled) looks like he was wet and was dried with a hair dryer so now his hair stands up&nbsp;straight.</p>

Nose to nose often happens between adult dogs and puppies. But this is not what&#8217;s happening here. Here we have 2 adult dogs (the Maltese on the right and my dog on the left) and it turns out that both of them are &#8216;chickens&#8217;, so they are not threatening each&nbsp;other.</p>

<p>This dog was playing at the dog park. She was running around, she was harassing almost all the other dogs, and now her owner wants to go&nbsp;home.</p>
<p>She refused to go home. She went on strike. So instead of doing a sitting, she just threw herself on the ground.

<p>Her name is ‘Peace’. She’s a 3 or 4 years old and she deserves her name. Her owners first gave her that name because she&#8217;s nice and pleasant, then they found the name tag to&nbsp;match.</p>

<p><strong>Lilliputian v&nbsp;Gulliver</strong></p>

<p>There are many movies made from the book: Gulliver&#8217;s Travels by Jonathan Swift. My favorite version is the 1939 version with Jessica Dragonette and Lanny&nbsp;Ross.</p>
<p>When I look at the photo of this French Bulldog looking up to his owner, I think about the Lilliputians from Gulliver&#8217;s&nbsp;Travels.</p>
<p>Not exactly true, since he&#8217;s scratching himself while pointing his head up, but it still sounds&nbsp;good.</p>

<li>The long&nbsp;haired</li>
